The Palo Alto Tennis Club (PATC) is a local non-profit volunteer organization devoted to the enjoyment and promotion of tennis. Most Club members live in Palo Alto, many come from our surrounding communities. Est'd 1948.

In addition to weekly adult "drop-in" tennis we host four "City-Slam-Series" tournaments, several USTA Sanctioned Junior Tourneys, and many Tennis Under Twelve Tennis (TAUT) and other youth tennis events. New for 2015 is a resource for members who would like to connect for casual or regular games, the PATCPlayList (for members only).

Members also receive 'Net Notes', a monthly emailed newsletter.
